I did, once that I remember, but it was with the ancestor of OpenOffice, 
I think it was StarOffice. When creating a letter with a template, some 
parts were pre-filled. I found later that the document was saved with a 
macro, and all the derivative copies of it inherited the macro. At some 
point, when opening the file, the program asked if I wanted to allow 
running the macros, which surprised me a lot. Of course, there was no 
danger, the file was never shared. The template created macros in the 
saved document. What for, I have no idea. The template was distributed 
with the software for installation.

But I never created M$ documents with macros in the job place. I never 
bothered to learn how to do that, nor did I have a reason to do so. Thus 
I'm sure.

Same that I'm sure the IT department had the appropriate filters in the 
mail server, with the knowledge of the time. There was never a problem 
while I was working there.
